Description

I originally made a small amount of this wonderful design in 2006 (sold at CubicDissection) and thought I might make a few more copies.

This particular copy is crafted from Maple from an antique upright piano with Padauk slipfeathers.

Stewart makes note of this particular version:

“The Original Christmas has two design flaws - a piece duplicated and a symmetrical piece. Both flaws have been corrected in this 2018 version. Both versions have only one solution.”

Entire puzzle has been ‘triple buffed’ and comes with description sheet that is signed and dated.

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

11 ‘F’ Pentominominoes by John Devost

I spotted this design on Ishino’s site early this year and decided to make a copy. The designer is unknown and features one solution in the 4x4x4 box that I made for it. It also features only one solution in a flat 8x8 configuration.Both solutions contain voids making this a very tricky solve and I also made extra cubes that can be used in the solve but not really sure if that helps or hinders your progress?
